twitch streaming has become so cringe tbh

[REALiNSaNgAMingGODPrODIgY]

it was a platform i enjoyed watching lets plays of games to see if i would like it. it cost the streamer nothing since they would make that money bsck in donations. so you can just watch the game and see if you want to play it yourself or not.

not we got zoomer streamer 1235123566 who is annoying everyone in games and trying to make "content" by throwing/smurfing and whatever else they can do to ruin gaming. streamers are now bribed by studios to advertives their mico transations games as well.

and there is just so much worse thinks on there.


how does a platform for gaming become so sad and corrupted?

Just need to be more picky and find someone you like, small streamers are usually lot more genuine and interactive then someone with 100K followers.

I cant imagine a person watching for more than 1 hour a streamer playing whatever, are those people even real?

Again... you're misunderstanding how people are actually consuming this content. It's not like a TV show you have to pay attention to. It's more background noise you sometimes interact with.

The' watching other people play games' fandom is heating up right now.

Well ...
First, it's because i dont trust adds and trailers and game journos. Before buying a game, i wanna see if it's gonna be my taste. Then, you'll may wanna see reactions to a game section (or a whole game even) that you yourself particurly liked - people discovering gems like Deus Ex or Vampire bloodlines, or see peeps marvels at immersive sim Arx Fatalis even will all the bad quirks of the game. Or see how others deals with a difficult section of a game, like "how the hell people can pass the mission 3 of the wisigoths in Age of Empires 2 ?". The whole speedrunning community is about rewatching someone else's perf'.

But yeah, some twitch and others have "added content" in the form of their quirkiness and personnality. Some like CJUGames is just some normal guy doing horror games, and is mostly normal, but take a Many A True Nerd. His voice is stupid and he's a master at making harebrained schemes that relies on his miscomprehension of a situation because he is just at that level of NOT aware; and as he might be on Bethesda PR section payroll, he genuinely made Fallout 3 into somehow immersive short stories that make the huge empty world filled with trash and rubble that i played into something akin to a GAME with EXCITMENT - thing i didnt felt during my own playthrought of it.
You may not like the guy, but i'll listen to his harebrained things as background noise without any problem over any radio, any day :p

Most streamers dont care about video games. They are nubs. Lets poop on them TONIGHT!
